Castonbury Park: Ladies of Disrepute - The Lady Who Broke the Rules\Lady of Shame

Harry Montague must discover the truth about his family's missing heir-for better or worse. But his thoughts are sidetracked from the moment he first sees Elena Ruiz, beautiful and fierce in her bright red dress.

She's innocent, yet Spanish society has condemned her. Harry can help this woman in need with the security of a marriage made on paper-but nothing more. For his heart is armoured by pain and regret from the past. And yet soon he finds himself fighting an unexpected longing for his new wife that grows each day...

As the Duke of Rothermere's youngest daughter, Phaedra Montague is expected to be the dutiful darling of elegant society. Too bad, then, that this feisty Lady has swapped her dance cards and silk gowns for racing tips and breeches!

With the arrival of gorgeous groom Bram Basingstoke, Phaedra can't help but be distracted. He's as wild and untamed as the stallion he's training. But Phaedra is supposed to act properly at all times. Even if this dark-haired devil in a billowing white shirt is tempting her to a very improper roll in the hay…

'Be careful who you get close to…'

Adam Stratton is a new breed of Regency Man. A hero of Trafalgar, he is now an entrepreneur, rich beyond imagination. Yet all the money in the world can't erase the scandal and shame of his birth.

Since childhood, Amber has been the only one to know Adam's true value. And her memories of the housekeeper's son at Castonbury were the only respite from her unhappy marriage.

Now a widow, Amber finds her new-found freedom daunting, although the sight of Adam gives her hope. But, despite their simmering attraction, putting their faith in each other may be more dangerous than they had bargained for…

"It's hard for me to admit, but you're not the son I once knew..."The obliterated battlefields of Spain are a world away from the privileged life of James Montague, Earl of Castonbury. Only nurse Catalina Moreno eases the deafening roar of mortar fire-and in a crumbling chapel by candlelight they make their vows. But before the sheets cool from their scorching wedding night Jamie leaves for a brutally dangerous mission...

Two years later, believing her husband dead, Catalina is shocked to see a man who looks and sounds like her Jamie at Castonbury-but where once there was warmth and charm now unflinching torment lies in the gaze of a man she barely recognises...

'I have to inform you that your brother has died…'

Lord Giles Montague has always lived his life just the way he wants-fighting on the battlefields and fighting off the fawning ladies in London's clubs. But the notoriously wicked Montague is now reluctant heir to Castonbury Park!

Having grown up with the Montague family, Miss Lily Seagrove finds her least favourite by far is Lord Giles! He's arrogant, rude and oh, so infuriatingly handsome… But she's a girl of Gypsy heritage, and although she might be able to get under Giles' battle-scarred skin, she can never be Lady of the Manor…

'You're in danger of dishonoring the family name for good!'

Lady Claire must put pride above prattle if she is to shake off the not-so-respectable reputation of her youth. Swapping rebellion for reserve, she returns to her imposing childhood home, Castonbury Park, seeking her family's help. Penniless Claire needs a sensible husband…and fast!

But when the dark gaze of head chef Monsieur André catches her unwanted eye, he's as deliciously tempting as the food he prepares. Claire knows he's most unsuitable…even if the chemistry between them is magnetic. Risking her reputation for André would be shameful-but losing him could be even worse!
